Been using Houzz for my bathroom remodel project and honestly it’s way more useful than I expected. It’s like this massive catalog of home design ideas where you can browse millions of photos of actual homes – not just staged magazine shots. Found some really cool vanity ideas I wouldn’t have thought of otherwise.
Here’s what you do: you scroll through photos sorted by room or style, save the ones you like, and there’s this sketch feature where you can draw right on the pictures. Like if you wanna show your contractor where you want a light fixture, you just mark it up. And also they’ve got this visual search thing where you can take a pic of something you like and it’ll find similar products. Pretty neat but doesn’t always work perfectly.
If you’re remodeling or just redecorating, this app’s actually super helpful. Not gonna lie – it can feel overwhelming with how much stuff is in there, and sometimes it pushes you to buy things pretty hard. But for getting ideas and finding specific products, it’s way better than scrolling through generic home decor apps.
